Stereoscope ‘Standard’, long focus lenses
Details
The Stéréoscope Standard is a feature-rich stereoscope. The oculars are attached by means of a bayonet mount and are interchangeable. The stereoscope can be equipped with ordinary or achromatic lenses, available in short, medium, or long focal lengths. For the 6 x 13 model, metal frames were available to allow viewing of 45 x 107 stereoviews. The rear section of the viewer, which holds the ground glass, can be opened and provides space for colour filters to tint the stereoviews.
